The report is created by allowing Krush users pre-line product views, or “SneakPeeks,” and represents Krush’s largest sample size to date, mirroring the company’s substantial growth since its 2011 launch. “The number of consumers rating their favorite brands’ new styles and gear has grown 212% since the release of the Spring 2012 report, just six months ago,” according to Krush CEO Gina Ashe. “Krush presented 206 SneakPeeks in 2011, attracting over 50,000 new fans who have reserved over 11,000 products for future purchase.”

In addition to offering its fans the ability to pre-purchase products through its site, the increased sample size should translate to better predictions of what will be trending this Fall, helping brands fine tune their lines and retailers target their buys.
